Meet The Trump Fans Of Q-Anon

President Trump is flying around the country this week trying to convince Americans that if the want to Keep America Great, they need to vote Republican in November.

But his campaign rally in Tampa Tuesday was about more than just the mid-terms. It was the national coming out party for Q, a conspiracy theory that has been kicking around the Trumpworld internet for just about a year.

One part Pizzagate, one part X-Files, the theory posits a government agent (with supposed "Q-Level" Top Secret clearance) putting cryptic messages on Trump-friendly message boards, telling adept readers where to find clues that point to a massive government conspiracy Trump is single-handedly thwarting from the oval office in secret. Example: The Mueller probe is actually being run by Trump as a smokescreen to cover up an investigation into sex trafficking by Democrats and movie stars, according to some Q denizens.

The Tampa rally had a lot of Qers feeling like Trump acknowledged them directly, urging them to carry on. VICE News spoke with one Florida family who became Q famous after Trump seemed to give them a wave from the rally stage.
